And at the same time either aggressively or passive aggressively making it clear to him that she is disinterested in the video, which is reinforcing the man’s understanding that she is also disinterested in whatever it was that he found interest in. (That’s literally the whole subtext of the meme.)
Just saying that men share their concerns and feelings differently than women. Men very often share concerns and feelings indirectly. If a guy is repeatedly sharing YouTube videos with the woman that the woman doesn’t find funny or interesting, there is probably a reason the man is sharing them. An active listening woman might ask the man something like “How do you feel about this video?”
You’re reading a lot into a meme where the woman is clearly still leaning over his shoulder and watching the video he is showing her.
Why is the onus on the woman to be his therapist and drag answers out of him? If there’s trust built into a relationship, I expect my partner to be honest and forthright about his feelings and needs.

Women are not mind readers.
I’m just trying to explain the “urge” described in the meme. That’s all.
Almost like the “urge” isn’t exclusive to men and humans tend to enjoy sharing our interests with each other.
